I always tell myself to be patient,
But my left hand shakes against your new couch.
Control of the situation fell through my fingers,
And I heard her say "You can't keep living as if you're dying."
Well, I'm dying.

Now what an awkward way to spend the holiday,
And such a deviant way to behave.
It's amazing how quiet this house is
When a world outside is celebrating
Their New Years and their new fears.

Your addiction is okay because it's medically approved,
And the night is expired.
Lay me down to sleep,
But one more thing,
Can you say addiction?
Well I can admit my guilt.

Emergency. Oh emergency.
Let's whisper goodnight...

Now what an awkward way to spend the holiday,
And such a deviant way to behave.
It's amazing how quiet this house is
When a world outside is celebrating
Their New Years and their new fears.
